Assessment of ND County and Local Road Needs, 2019-2021
This effort responds to the North Dakota Legislature’s request for a study of the transportation infrastructure of all county, township, and tribal roads and bridges in the state. The following document is in final form following the comment period. Comments were taken between July 21, 2020 and October 12, 2020. Infrastructure needs are estimated using the most current crop and oil production forecasts, traffic estimates, and roadway condition data. Agricultural and oil related traffic is modeled in detail at sub-county level. Oil related traffic is predicted for individual spacing units, whereas agricultural production is estimated at the township level.
